[Dell Streak 7] Z4nd4r:
Tegra 2, 512MB RAM, 4G speeds on an unlimited data plan; what's not to like?

All right, I know there are some quibbles out there. It only runs FroYo (presumably with no dual processor support), the screen is "low res," and the battery life sucks. As for the screen, I saw it and it looks great to me. It's the same ppi as the iPad, and I don't see anyone crying about the "crappy" screen on the iPad.

As for the other two issues, the battery and FroYo, I would like to say they don't really matter; but they do. Or, maybe they don't. That's what I'm not sure of, so I'm here to ask you people for some educated opinions before I take the plunge.

What's the future of Dell Streak 7 development? Everything hinges on this question, for me (my only Android device is an OG Droid, so I'm a bit spoiled with ROMs).

Battery life will be improved greatly with some tweaking (such as adding Honeycomb, underclocking settings, new kernels, removing T-Mo bloatware and such), and FroYo can be replaced. As I understand it (correct me if I'm wrong), the S7 has an unlocked bootloader and is fully rootable/ROMable.

My issue is, I don't see a lot going on for this tablet. It's near perfect hardware (though I suppose the screen and battery could be better, but they're good enough for the price). Right size, right processor, enough RAM, 4G, GPS, all that. Why isn't there more development for it? Even the Nook Color has HC running on it, and the XOOM is already overclocked.

Is this tablet a dead end if I'm looking for one with custom ROMs? I wish I knew how to code for Android, but I don't. I really appreciate all the devs do, and I couldn't live with an Android with no dev support. I had an Archos A70 for about a month, but returned it because it was so limited in this regard. Is the S7 another player with great potential that will probably, ultimately, be left behind?

Even if all it gets is Honeycomb stable and not much else, I'd still probably pick up this tab.

What are your thoughts and opinions?
[Dell Streak 7] Hellzya:
As it is right now the s7 has no dev support. But who knows if that will change. It is rootable and the bootloader is unlocked. I enjoy mine.

Sent from my Dell Streak
[Dell Streak 7] Alpha_Cluster:
I know I picked mine up for hacking but I don't think devs will really be looking at it till honeycomb. And probably for dell to drop the source code.

Personally though I think it's a great tablet even with stock froyo.
[Dell Streak 7] :
I have a streak 7 and I love it. Its very fast and I have no qualms with its screen. Only thing id rather have than the streak is an Atrix. Haha, anyone wanna trade lol.

Anyway, its a great tablet but no dev work is a minus.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Joeway124:
I plan to root my samsung in the near future, wondering rather than using Odin+tar files and such to revert back to stock, will the samsung EB13 flash tool unroot the phone the same way?
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redram38:
I would think it would. It wipes the phone completely like Odin. My guess would be you would be just like you bought it only with 2.2
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sh0wNuF:
Yes it will, the samsung tool is odin with a program on top to guide you step by step

thanks all, just tried it last night and it did infact clear everything.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DGarmon:
I have a simple question, I'm currently on CM 7 nighty 7 and was wondering if it’s possible to back up your Home screen with all your Widgets and shortcuts with either an app or a software setting somewhere? With CM7 I normally just flash over on previous builds, but as many of you know, that sometimes problems happen for whatever reason and a full wipe is required or recommended. So with that being said, it can be a pain to have to always start from scratch on setting up your home screen shortcuts and widgets. Not sure if it matters but I have both ADW Ex and Launcher Pro, which both have backup settings but do not allow Widgets to be backup. Just trying to make it little easier if at all possible, Thanks.

Derek
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TJBunch1228:
It needs to be saved to the SD Card and widgets cannot be saved, which is why only the applications are able to be restored. In short, no there is no way. But even still, having all the applications atleast restored back to where you want them is a huge help.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ThaBadBoy:
Yes there is a way. There is an app called MyBackUp Pro. I use it to restore my homescreen. Everything is restored with the exception of the widgets. The widgets will be on the screen but "broke" so to say. I just remove the "broken" widget and replace it again.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BlackSHELF:
This can be done though default ADW as you can backup and restore but as stated the widget has to be replaced. You don't need any special apps for it work normally its saved on root of your sdcard when you save it.
[Desire Themes and Apps] Peikko:
Hallo

I bought the official WolframAlpha App about 3 weeks ago and yesterday after I installed Oxygen 2.0 final (was using RC before) it's not available anymore.

If I scan the code from appbrain it just tells me that the elment couldn't be found.

Is it rom related? As far as I see it's the only app I always used which is gone.
[Desire Themes and Apps] HinHale:
I'm guessing rom related, since it shows up for me (CM7, latest nightly).
[Desire Themes and Apps] de Wolfe:
Bought it today with CM7 from Germany - so it seems to be not a general problem.
[Desire Themes and Apps] midnightflash:
Installed Oxygen 2.0 also... and can admit that it's missing in my market also.

So might really be rom-related.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mustangboy88:
I like the purpose of the app, but it is becoming more of a nuisance for some of my more used apps. So I uninstalled it and it still blocks ads. So I have searched xda and google and the only thing I come up with is adfree not updating the host file. Not exactly going to fix my problem.

Is there a way to remove this app altogether, do I need to somehow restore a known default host file? And if I do, how do I go along finding and doing that? I can't believe I can't find anything on this anywhere, and thank you in advance.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] _MetalHead_:
I may be wrong but I think the "revert" option gives you the old host file back.

Okay, so when i search for place, it gives me the right location and I see the correct intersection and stuff.

However, when I get driving directions, Google Nav takes me exactly in the opposite direction or some other random place. The address and everything is correct, but it just takes me in some bufooville area...It's 3 for 3 now, pissing me off and I really dont want to switch to sprint nav.

anyone else facing this issue? or any fixes?

Running stock FROYO EB13...see my signature..
[Epic 4G General] trn_psycho:
Not see the issue here, but then again, I pretty much always use sprint nav. It's the one app that they got right IMO. My GPS is always faster, and more accurate on sprints app for some reason. (plus, the voice is just SO much better!)
[Epic 4G General] Mutiny32:
Have you tried Vlingo? It's pretty awesome with its voice-commands and car-mode. It's free and I seem to remember that it either shipped with the phone or was offered by Sprint for free.

Beta beta beta

Use sprint nav. Its free...I don't get why people use google nav. Sprint nav is the only sprint app I don't consider bloatware lol its always so accurate and the 3d view is fun.

I used google nav and it got my location andstuff righ, but it kept telling me the place I had to go was to my left...but on my left was a highway above an empty lot lol
[Epic 4G General] musclehead84:
Yeah flying fox is right. I've had it.to me to a deserted place and say my.location was right there. Sometimes its right and.sometimes its not. That's why.it gives out that statement before you use the navigation on it that its still in beta. Sprint navigation is the way to.go. I keep the.apk on.my SD card and install it when I flash roms.

Is it the spn-signed-release.apk one?
[Epic 4G General] riceknight:
Google nav has been great to me so far. I find it far superior to many other nav programs. As for the nasty voice, you can change that depending on text to speech settings on your phone.

I also found that google nav works the best with audio over bluetooth in my car.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shehrammajid:
HI

I'm running cm7, lovin it, but I have a question:

are we ever going to see the video codecs from stock 2.2? I can barely play any movies on this rom...Tried the gallery video player plus a whoooole range of others and still nothing.....any fix for this?

Ive tried rockplayer, vplayer, qplayer, mvideoplayer......almost all on the market...lol

just this one thing is enough to make me go back to 2.2

its an amazing rom...a bit unfortunate that it doesnt have this support for a wide variety of video formats.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mattband83:
First let me state I've searched for answers for a week, tried things to no resolve. This is all because my T-Mobile phone wasn't getting at&t 3G.

I purchased an unlocked, rooted Samsung Vibrant. Specs below:

Firmware: 2.2

Kernel: 2.6.32.9

Build: Bionix-v 1.2.1 By Team Whiskey

I did the following:

1. Remove SIM card

2. After "SIM card recoverd." message, dial *#2263#

4. Select option 4 - Combi bands

5. Select option 8 - WCDMA 850

6. Select Menu, Back

Now when i start/restart my phone, it takes longer to get to home screen (i see the "Team Whiskey" refreshing 2 to 4 times before getting to the home screen).

And I'm still only getting EDGE (E), not 3G.

I've downloaded Speedtest.net and performed a test - results:

Download: .04Mbps

Upload: .02Mbps

So I'm looking for help/guidance on the acquiring 3G and on the start/restart issue. I live in Niagara Falls, NY.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zharptitza:
Yeah, apparently even though it says WCDMA the 850 band is only EDGE. 1900 is the 3G band on the Vibrant for AT&T. So if you're in an area with only 850, or if 1900 gets full and you get bumped down then you won't get 3G. That's the downside of this phone versus the Captivate.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mattband83:
Thanks, and thoughts on the start up issue? It wasn't like that until i did the steps as noted above.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] da_dragon2k3:
Try restarting it again. See if the reboot is back to normal. I think it should.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mattband83:
still refreshed 3 or 4 times but it seems to be faster.

so the only fix for the 3g is to get a captivate? It's with my area? Cause i have seen sites that state the vibrant should be able to get att 3g.

thanks for the help.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mattband83:
So i'm noticing sometimes when i restart my phone, i see the H for 3g but then it turns into E for edge. Thoughts?

Also, when i do the speedtest while on EDGE - shouldn't it be faster than what i've been getting, which is usually 60kbps down and 80kbps up.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zharptitza:
The best way probably to test is your sim card in another vibrant. maybe yours is bad. I don't know. An at&t phone would be a better way to ensure you get the right bands. If we didn't have such great devs and I wasn't in a good area for 1900 then I'd switch. I am also to lazy to switch.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Master&Slave™:
Dude leave your SIM in.

[EVO Shift 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] doratheconquistadora:
Morning guys,

Sorry if this has been asked/answered in a previous thread (couldn't find one specific to the EVO Shift)

I have already perm-rooted my Shift (S-Off) and I was looking through some apps for root only and one in particular (Font Changer (root)) explicitly requires "*FULL ROOT* (aka NAND unlocked or S-OFF) and *BUSYBOX*"

Ok, so I believe I have full root, unsure about the NAND though

And I have been having problems with BusyBox getting installed (still using stock Froyo 2.2 ROM)

Thanks
[EVO Shift 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RyteSyde:
boot into hboot (where you do recovery) and look at the top line, it should say s-off if your nand is unlocked (which was done when you flashed the engineering spl).

where are you getting busybox from?
[EVO Shift 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ahager88:
If you're s-off, you're good to go.

For busybox, download titanium backup and select Problems? That'll take care of it.

If all else fails, use your recovery! Make a nandroid, format all partitions and wipe dalvik cache, then flash preludedrews stock base.

:)
[EVO Shift 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] doratheconquistadora:
I've tried BusyBox from both the Market and the one under Problems? with Titanium Backup

Ok, so at least I know that I'm NAND unlocked too

How exactly do I do this?

"Make a nandroid, format all partitions and wipe dalvik cache, then flash preludedrews stock base"

The problem is that no matter how long I wait, BusyBox is stuck at the Please Wait screen "Please wait while we locate BusyBox and gather system data..."
[EVO Shift 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ahager88:
I assume you flashed a recovery image, yes?

Boot the phone up holding vol. down and power. You should be in the S-Off Engineering SPL (bootloader)

Follow the instructions for recovery, which I believe is vol. down again, then while in recovery select Backup/Restore. Create a backup.

Do a data and cache wipe via the main menu in recovery, toggle down to advanced and wipe dalvik cache.

Then go to Partitions, or Mounts and Storage depending on the recovery. Format /boot /system /data and /cache.

Install zip from sdcard -> select the base rom you downloaded from the android development section.

[Galaxy S II General] henreeg:
Would anyone happen to know-

if I buy a Galaxy SII from Europe, would it work in the US? specifically with T-Mobile?
[Galaxy S II General] r4d14n7:
As I understand it, yes. But only with the EDGE network. 3G and 4G frequencies are probably different. Could be wrong.
[Galaxy S II General] Bernardos70:
This is the band T-Mobile USA uses: AWS, or UTMS. I don't think it would work, seeing the Galaxy S II's specs. I believe it has to be capable of both. I think best case scenario, it works like an unlocked iPhone and you can get Edge, but not 3G, much less "4G."

While the Galaxy S II supposedly works in both bands, I believe that in order to fully function with T-mobile USA's network it has to support both at the same time. Like I mentioned before, that's called AWS, and it seems to me it would have to be explicitly written in there as a supported band.
[Galaxy S II General] henreeg:
So what other carrier would support this device?

btw, thanks for the info!
[Galaxy S II General] Funk2641:
It has at&t's 3G bands
[Galaxy S II General] MikeyMike01:
Completely wrong.

At&t uses 850 & 1900 for data.

The SGS2 has 850, 900, 1900, and 2100.

It should work on t mobile, but I don't know the network bands off the top if my head.

Sent from my Captivate.
[Galaxy S II General] Carne_Asada_Fries:
T-Mobile uses 1700 so you wouldn't be getting 3G.
[Galaxy S II General] inurb:
I had to post because I saw alot of misinformation.

The GS II will certainly work in the United States.

It is a Quad Band GSM phone w/ EDGE data. It will also work on the 1900 WCDMA 3G band. At&t, Telus and Bell ALL function on the 1900 WCDMA band.

So yes the GS II will work with 3g on the 1900 WCDMA band here in the states and in Canada. You only need one 3g Band either 850 or 1900 will do. Best to have both so check your coverage area. I have a Galaxy S and have constant 3.5G HSPA signal with 1900 WCDMA only band.
[Galaxy S II General] silverwolf0:
Jeezus someone who actually knows that 2g and 3g bands are different.
[Galaxy S II General] MikeyMike01:
I looked up the network bands. This is how it is:

Voice/calls/texts/etc. will work 100% fine on both of them.

As for 3G:

SGS2: 850, 900, 1900, 2100

AT&T uses 850 and 1900. 3G will work perfectly.

T-mobile uses 1700 and 2100. Apparently their network is retarded and you need both.

Sent from my Captivate.
[Galaxy S II General] nath12:
Wrong again

T-Mobile uses 1700 paired with 2100 commonly referred to as 1700. A phone with 2100 will not work on T-Mobile... A phone must have 1700 to work on the T-Mobile USA 3G network anywhere in the USA. This phone will work on the 2G network and IF T-Mobile has any 1900 3G towers it could connect to those (I'm not aware of any at this time).
[Atrix 4G General] KennyXL:
Hi,

I've done a search and haven't been able to find anything solid on this so I apologize if it's been covered. I've been using the Atrix for a few days now and I noticed that when I view click on the "Files" app (the default file viewer that comes with the Atrix) it comes up with a list of the following options:

Internal phone storage

SD card

Shared folders

Protected Content

This is different than previous Android phones I've used in that I get a file structure instead of options of where to look. That's fine; I can just click on one of those options to view the contents. However, I use a application at work to use my phone as a glorified picture frame. It's called Slideshow Bob and it does not recognize the external SD Card. This hasn't been an issue with prior Android devices, but from little I can glean from doing an online search, this does seem to be a limitation with some Motorola models. Again, I have had no problem accessing my pictures in Slideshow Bob from any of the Samsung Android devices I own and this is my first Motorola phone with this OS so I'm wondering if this is a bug that will be remedied or if they've basically limited file access from apps on this phone. I'm sure that's not the case with every app, but it certainly is for some. Anyone else have any issues or workarounds they'd like to share?
[Atrix 4G General] Sogarth:
iirc, none of the currently released Samsung Android devices have built-in storage plus an expansion slot, which is why you've likely never seen the issue.

Basically, Android was never designed to have more than one expansion slot, so that ends up being mounted in /mnt/sdcard (or /sdcard, with one symlinked to the other). Since there's no standard on where additional storage ends up being (and most programs assume there's no additional storage anyways), programs usually don't know where to look.
[Atrix 4G General] harolds:
There is probably an option is Slideshow Bob of where to get the pictures, try /mnt/sdcard-ext/[folder name], where [folder name] is the name of the folder on the external sd card where the pictures are.
[Atrix 4G General] KennyXL:
Hi,

My Samsung Captivate had 16GB of built-in memory and an SD expansion card slot which I filled with an additional 16GB card. In the android file manager I could access the expansion card by going into the ext_sd (or something like that) under the main sdcard directory. I could also see this folder in Slideshow Bob.
